Male/Female

I just bought two African Dwarf Frogs about a month ago. They have been a great addition to my aquarium. I've noticed that one is growing twice as fast as the other. Does this mean I have a male and female? I know with most frogs females are much larger than the males. Do they breed well in captivity, because I don't want to have a bunch of baby frogs. Do ya’ll know of any good sites that would be helpful on this subject? Perhaps things that I shouldn’t do that might cause them to breed? Thanks ahead of time for any replies.

My girlfriend and I have 2 Albino African Clawed Frogs. All I can tell you is that we had the male first and then female (we did not know the sexes of them at the time). The female we got was about half the size of the male. In just a short amount of time, we have discovered the one (smaller) is male and the Female is a cow.....lol. She is now at least 3 times as big as him. I also worry the she steals his food, so I try to hand feed both of them.

These are not dwarfs, but this is my experience.
